[SR-Users] SIP messages over UDP with sizes over MTU

[Daniel-Constantin Mierla]

Hello,

first, not related to the topic you reported, I would recommend at least
upgrading to latest 4.0.x, there were many fixes from v4.0.0 and there
are no changes to be done to config or database -- simply deploy latest
4.0.x and restart.

Back to this topic. Is all the other traffic handled apart of big OPTIONS?

Do you have pike module enabled? If yes, can you double check and be
sure that the SBC is not blacklisted (traffic from it should not be
handled via pike_check_req()).

Cheers,
Daniel
